Kyphoplasty system and method

A kyphoplasty system includes various instruments which can be selectively used in a surgical theater (e.g., during a surgical operation on a patient) or a surgical training environment. The kyphoplasty system can include one or more of a kyphoplasty apparatus, a prone table mat, a connector system, a bone introducer needle, and a biopsy device. The kyphoplasty system may also include a training system for use in the training environment.

Dispensing system and method

A dispensing system includes a device having a body extending along a longitudinal axis between opposite proximal and distal ends. The body includes a proximal chamber, a distal chamber and a wall between the chambers. The body includes a first port in communication with the proximal chamber and a second port in communication with the distal chamber. A shaft is movably positioned within the body. The shaft extending through the wall and comprising a proximal plunger positioned within the proximal chamber and a distal plunger positioned within the distal chamber. Wherein pressure introduced through an opening in the proximal end moves the shaft such that the proximal plunger moves a material within the proximal chamber out of the first port and the distal plunger moves a material within the distal chamber out of the second port. Kits and methods of use are disclosed.

Orthopaedic trauma devices with porous regions and therapeutic agent delivery
11589908 · 2023-02-28 · ·

A device for treating orthopaedic trauma includes a device body having an exterior surface and a cannulation formed therein that extends from one longitudinal end of the device body to an opposite longitudinal end of the device body and at least one porous ingrowth material region associated with the exterior surface of the device body and fluidly coupled to the cannulation. The at least one porous ingrowth material region is configured to deliver a therapeutic agent from the cannulation to a region outside the device body.

Bone material hydration devices and methods

A device for hydrating particulate bone material is provided. The device comprises a tubular member having an interior surface and an exterior surface. The interior surface is configured to receive the particulate bone material and a hydration fluid. The exterior surface has a plurality of pores configured to allow the hydration fluid to flow into the interior surface of the tubular member and hydrate the particulate bone material. The plurality of pores are smaller in size than the particulate bone material. Methods of dispensing particulate the bone material are also provided.

Modular medical implant allowing a targeted injection

A modular medical implant allowing the targeted injection of a liquid or pasty material into a bone cavity. This implant is produced with four types of modules provided with a lumen and of variable lengths, including: either a male securing principle, referred to as proximal modules, or a female securing principle, referred to as distal modules, or a male securing principle and a female securing principle, referred to as intermediate modules and perforated intermediate modules, that can be secured in a predetermined order and number in order to position the perforated intermediate modules at suitable levels to allow an injection product to be conveyed to and diffused at the targeted locations, via the perforations, while producing the required length of the implant. The implant is intended, in general, for surgical operations and, in particular, for interventional radiology.

Delivery tool and method for forming a structure having a layer of hardened paste and particles under the layer

The present invention provides a delivery tool and a method for bone grafting on a bone surface via a minimally invasive approach, wherein a structure having a layer of hardened paste and particles under the layer is formed by using the delivery tool. The layer helps to keep particles on the bone surface.

BONE MATERIAL DISPENSING SYSTEM AND METHODS OF USE

A bone material dispensing system is provided. The bone material dispensing system comprises a funnel having a proximal portion, the proximal portion comprising a top end and a bottom end, the top end opposite the bottom end, the top end comprising a surface having a protrusion configured to receive a locking member of a bone material dispensing device and the bottom end comprising a connector configured to secure the funnel to the bone material dispensing device. A bone material dispensing system comprises a pusher and a holder is provided. A method of dispensing bone material with the bone material dispensing system is also provided.

Kyphoplasty system and method

A kyphoplasty system includes various instruments which can be selectively used in a surgical theater (e.g., during a surgical operation on a patient) or a surgical training environment. The kyphoplasty system can include one or more of a kyphoplasty apparatus, a prone table mat, a connector system, a bone introducer needle, and a biopsy device. The kyphoplasty system may also include a training system for use in the training environment.

BONE MATERIAL DISPENSING SYSTEM AND METHODS OF USE

A bone material dispensing system is provided. The bone material dispensing system comprises a loading device having a perimeter surrounding a base plane and a rim, the perimeter comprising a side wall extending along a longitudinal axis and a bar joining the side wall at a corner of the perimeter and extending in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis, the base plane comprising a loading surface bordered by the side wall along the longitudinal axis, the loading surface having an end edge extending in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis such that the side wall, the bar and the end edge form a rim adjacent to the loading surface and the bar. A method of loading bone material with the bone material dispensing system is also provided.

Inflatable medical devices

Inflatable medical devices and methods for making and using the same are disclosed. The inflatable medical devices can be medical balloons. The balloons can be configured to have a through-lumen or no through-lumen and a wide variety of geometries. The device can have a high-strength, non-compliant, fiber-reinforced, multi-layered wall. The inflatable medical device can be used for angioplasty, kyphoplasty, percutaneous aortic valve replacement, or other procedures described herein.
